SPAR 3D Expo & Conference Announces 2018 Education Program

Anaheim – The conference program for SPAR 3D Expo & Conference, the premier international event for the application of 3D technology in industry, has been finalized. The highly anticipated program, organized by conference planners and an Advisory Board comprised of 15 industry experts, includes 24 product previews and 48 sessions made up of keynote presentations, plenaries, 101-tracks, and panels. More than 50 speakers including 7 keynoters will provide industry professionals with an overview of 3D technologies, insight into the newest 3D sensing, 3D processing, and 3D visualization technologies on the market, as well as a glimpse at what’s to come.

Combined with an international exhibition of the newest 3D technology from the world’s top vendors and numerous networking events, the expo and conference is critical for anyone who needs to stay on top of the latest technology and developments in the rapidly changing 3D technology market. The 2018 edition of SPAR 3D Expo & Conference, presented by SPAR3D.com and produced by Diversified Communications, will take place from June 5-7 at the Anaheim Convention Center, Anaheim, California. SPAR 3D Expo & Conference 2018 will be co-located with the inaugural edition of AEC Next Technology Expo & Conference.

According to Lisa Murray, Group Director at Diversified Communications, “The market for 3D technologies has never been hotter. While early adopters have been using LiDAR for years to map and document our world, some industry verticals are just waking up to the possibilities. 3D visualization tools have progressed immensely in the last few years and will be on display in record numbers this year. Our attendees rely on SPAR 3D to discover what’s new and what’s next in 3D tech and this year’s event will not disappoint.”

Day 1 – June 5

The three-day conference and exhibition kicks off on June 5 with the introduction of the latest products by two dozen best-in-class manufacturers in brief Product Preview presentations.

Keynote speaker Alexander Menzies, representative of the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory, will present The Telescope of Tomorrow, followed by keynote Nathan Pettyjohn, Founder of The VR/AR Association, for his lecture Vision for VR/AR Technologies in the Large Enterprise.

After a brief networking break, the conference program splits into separate tracks for Transportation, VDC, and Autonomous Technologies. Experts in each field will share best practices, case studies, and challenges with the participants.

Day 2 – June 6

The second day begins with keynote speakers Ken Sanders of Gensler and Jack Dahlgren of NVIDIA co-presenting Creativity & Constructability in AEC. Numerous breakout sessions organized by thematic track will follow the keynote including:
